So one thing I can see that you are doing wrong is that you are symbol drawing to a degree.
You are painting what you know a banana looks like, not what is actually in front of you.

How you fix this:
1. You need to forget what it is you are drawing, and think only in terms of abstract form/contour/value etc. The books drawing on the right side of the brain and Keys to drawing both focus on this.

2. Another thing you can do is trace the subject first to get a sense of the shape, like I have with your work here.
Notice how I only used one shape for the pears? Start with a large overall shape, focusing on getting the angles and placement right, then go back over it again and again, adding more details each time.

3. You need to do iterations of your own work. After you finish, look at what is wrong and really think about it. Compare a tracing. Then do the same study again. And again. And again. And again.
Make sure it is the same study, and fully analyze the result each time.
Kim Jung Gi used to rage draw the exact same thing for hours every night dozens of times because couldn't get it to look right because he was a terrible artist. Now he can look at something and draw it from any angle in any perspective near perfectly.

I wish I could see how you are studying, I have a feeling you are focusing on the wrong things. Just putting in hours wont make you better at art, you need to be extremely conscious of what you are doing.
